The box set is a numbered limited edition, so it might appeal to some collectors. Most people don't seem to want all the extra stuff, though. At least we will have a choice.
I've seen some people say they will buy it when it drops under $10, but when a studio goes to the trouble to remaster one of their classics from a new 4K scan, I think that should be supported as much as possible. If everybody waited until it hit the bargain bin at Wal-Mart, they would stop doing that.

Zen, I agree with supporting the 4K. I already have the box set on its way, and will be totally happy with all the fun items they've added. Actually, I think the $40 price tag is well worth, based on what you get. If you haven't seen all the fun stuff you get, go to YouTube and watch FilmFanPete's unboxing. I think the Blu by itself might not be worth it when you see all the cool stuff you get. I would be really disappointed if the single disc release did not come in a slipcover.
